Well, at least last year’s contest was (see below), and just as much is on the line tonight, so I don’t see why tonight’s affair should be any different.
The entire season has been building up to this. Eastern Oregon is 21-2; Southern Oregon is 21-2. Need more be said?
7 p.m. start time. Don’t be late or there may not be any seats.

New coach, many new players, new season. Check ’em out at 5:30 today.
#6 Karrington Jones points the way when Trevor Jones recovered this fumble during 2014’s championship run

Back in early September, when SOU football won for the first time in the 2015 season I said on Facebook that “I see the beginning of a long winning streak for SOU football.” Six straight wins later and the Raiders are ranked #1 in the country by the NAIA coaches. Six more wins in a row and the Raiders will be heading to Daytona in December. No pressure. If they can win six in a row until now, they can win six more in a row from now. Twelve straight for Daytona.
#12 Jesse Needles recovers the Yotes’ onside kick

Julius Rucker made a team-high 8 tackles and had a fumble-recovery return of 94 yards for a touchdown — the longest at SOU in at least 20 years. More details here.

A 3-0 week will likely mean a conference championship. Anything less probably doesn’t…
SOU is undefeated at home. No reason to change that fact this week.
Higher resolution:
#1 Julius Rucker Jr.
@SOURaiders @SOU_Football @Jrucker10
For the first time since the preseason poll, the NAIA football coaches (or at least the 15 with voting power) have selected SOU as the #1 NAIA football team. Ironically, it’s the first week that Massey has SOU as anything other than #1. Massey shows Reinhardt as their new #1 and SOU as #2. The coaches have Reinhardt at #6. Reinhardt has a bye week followed by their most difficult opponent, so far, Campbellsville on the road on 11/7. Reinhardt is still a 7-point favorite in that one. SOU is a 14-point favorite at Rocky Mountain this weekend.

Scottow threw for a touchdown, caught a pass for a touchdown, and was the holder for several PATs in the victory over College of Idaho.

After yesterday’s games Massey has given Reinhardt its #1 ranking, a ranking held by SOU for most of the season. The coaches will likely go with SOU or Morningside in tomorrow’s poll. Massey doesn’t have Morningside in its top five.
I previously hinted that the Frontier Conference may have only one team reach the postseason, but with Montana Tech’s victory over Carroll yesterday, things could go otherwise. If Montana Tech can get by Eastern Oregon this coming weekend, the winner of the Montana Tech vs. Montana Western contest on 11/14/15 may also make the postseason (along with SOU, assuming things go well for the Raiders the next few weeks). If EOU beats Tech and Tech beats Montana Western, then Southern Oregon will likely be the only Frontier Conference team to make the postseason.
